I then got
500 points for spending over £50
500 points ACM code for spending over £55

Sooo total was £57.49 with 2929 points back and 2 free gifts.

Not bad I thought.

Hi Melgirl, impressed with your shop! I need to do something similar and wondered where you got the ACM code for 500 points for spending over £55? (By the way, sorry if this quote business goes all wrong, it's the first time I've tried it!)

There are about 5 of the Britney Spears Fantasy gift sets left in the smaller Boots store in Bath for £8.25 (was £33 and still showing at £16.50 online). Just got one for myself (using Pigsback voucher) :j

Just got back from Boots.

Shop 1
I got 2x Botanics Soothing Mask reduced to £1.25
BOGOHP so paid £1.87

Shop 2
Don't quite understand what happened but last week I wanted to use a 500pts WYS £10 on No7 facial suncare but spent £9.50 and couldn't use it.
Today I took it back, along with the other 2 products from 342 and exchanged it for a £10.50 facial suncare.
The guy on the till was a bit confused....he refunded all 3 products, the till didn't realise they were 342 so was refunded more than I had spent and this was put on a gift card....then he put through the No7 bits, 342 kicked in, handed over voucher and it worked.
Nothing to pay and came away with £7 on a gift card!

Also found a Time Delay Anti-Redness Skin Concentrate for £1.57 (also came off the gift card)
200 pts Time Delay mag coupon
500pts No7 Facial skincare
£7 on gift card!
Total Spend £0!!!

I'm loving this Bootsing thing. Also saw a Time Delay microdermabrasion refil for £2 so may go back and get that and get another 200pts.

Hi Tinfrog.

I am not sure that we allowed to post codes, so you have a PM.

Has anyone managed to use the 3 model me vouchers together ? I have lots of these -the ACM let me print 5 and all the mags in Peterborough so far have the voucher in and i still have till spits

hi jemclajess, did you get your mags from the Luton branch? I picked up a couple the other day and neither of mine have the T&G vouchers inside will try a different store next week.

Hi Sally06,
Just got back from work and seen your message.
Yes it was in the Luton branch. :rolleyes:
As I don't drive I very rarely get to any other stores. I wish I had had time to go into the Oxford Street store on Thursday evening when I went past in the rain on our way to the 02. Never mind - if the till keeps bleeping when everyone else has been trying to use the vouchers from the mag and acm together then knowing my luck I would get an SA who wouldn't allow it (this has happened to me before in this store) so I wouldn't be able to use it anyway!!

I wanted to try the TS long hair curl cream (4.99) with the TS curl serum in the pink bottle (6.99). If it works, that would be 2.99 to pay plus 100 points. If it doesn't work, you'd end up paying 4.99 and thus would be better off doing two transactions with cheaper items that definitely work (like the shampoo, so it would be 2.49 each time and 100 points each time).

If anyone else tries this in various combos that don't include a shampoo or conditioner, please report back!

Hiya,
I tried this today, got TS Long Hair Curl Shampoo @ £4.99 and TS Curl Serum @ £6.99, hoping that I would pay just £4.99.
I handed over 100 pts voucher and other voucher for free TS product - something would not go through the till (I'm not sure which voucher as I was trying to look dis-interested!) and the SA did it manually so I ended up paying £6.99, with a free shampoo.
Still got my extra 100 points though, and some 'free' Time Delay wipes marked at £1.99 with extra 200 points.
Also, for anyone in Bristol - Broadmead - mags (found by photo counter upstairs) did NOT have the additional hair vouchers inside.
Hope this helps someone.

Saw some mag's and my eyes lite up, anbd had 3, got home checked all 3 and nothing. I wonder if the staff have noticed and been through ever mag before putting them out.

Nah, the booklets with the model.me and other coupons are basically bound in like regular pages of the magazine, and leave a big gap if you rip the booklet out (very noticeable) -- and the pages of the booklet come apart if you do that, too, as they shared a binding with the rest of the mag.

Thanks Melgirl! You're a star

That is odd, I did that same transaction (but with the curl conditioner instead of shampoo and using a till spit, too) and it worked. Maybe it depends on the store? The glitch worked for me at two stores.
